Abstract
A single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) direct-current-to-direct-current (DC-to-DC) converter includes a (i) power conversion stage electrically coupled between an input power node and a switching node and (ii) a plurality of output switching blocks. Each output switching block is electrically coupled between the switching node and a respective output power node. Each output switching block includes a respective input N-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (input NMOS FET) and a respective output N-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (output NMOS FET). The input NMOS FET is oriented in each output switching block such that a cathode of a body diode of the input NMOS FET is electrically coupled to the switching node. The output NMOS FET is oriented in each output switching block such that a cathode of a body diode of the output NMOS FET is electrically coupled to the output power node of the output switching block.
